Hi, I'm exploring other areas of the forum and have come across this bit, I have a couple of BMXs in my bike hoard and here they are.
An oval frame Black Burner, I've had since I was a lad, beaten to death, missing bits and in a sorry state but sporting some really rare Bandito handlebars and a pair of original Skyway mags.
In around 2019 i got the wind in my sails and decided to restore it, the stickers were available and that was all that was really holding me back so I did the whole sandblast/paint and then scour ebay and mates stashes to get it as good as i could. I didn't put the Banditos back on it, I am waiting for a Bandito frame to come my way and then Ill build a whole one and enjoy the rarity of riding some thing hardly anyone knows what it is.
I've got a new Super tuff burner here from the last re-release Raleigh did, its a nice bike to ride and I've put a lot of miles on it with the rest of the middle-aged-dads-on-kids-bikes riding crew and it is fun and quite easy on the old bones over a long ride between pubs.
Some pics !
